Bring Back Her Body (1981)
“Getting no more out of Honor, he drove grumpily into town and loaded up with groceries and the various editions of the papers. He returned to find Honor gone and Lisa sitting on deck. He turned the groceries over to her and went through the papers. The murder had made the late morning edition.
When Lisa returned, Cain read aloud to her. The gist of the story was that the caretakers of Patton’s place had returned from a week’s vacation after midnight to have their headlights light up a coffin in... the garage and in the coffin was the owner himself, dead. The house lights had been on but they went out suddenly; someone pulled the master switch and disappeared. The Harkness couple called the police but couldn’t trace the person or persons running away. A window had been forced but they saw no signs of robbery. Friends and acquaintances of the dead man were being questioned.
The afternoon paper had an interesting item concerning the fact that one Lisa Simms, a business partner of Patton, had disappeared.MoreLess
